PARROT SOFT FOOD
A nutritionally balanced, high protein soft food for breeding parrots.
Feed to adults prior to and during the breeding season to provide an
improved diet for rearing healthy chicks.
ABOUT PARROT DIETS
In the
wild, parrots feed their chicks a high protein diet of seeds, fruits,
insects and carrion. Generally, wild plants provide superior nutrient
compositions compared to most cereal grains fed by parrot breeders. The
insect and carrion component of the diet provides essential amino acids
and fatty acids.
Parrot
owners often supplement breeding birds with a selection of foods such as
soaked seed, “egg and biscuit” and a range of home-made recipes.
Unfortunately these can be deficient in many of the essential nutrients
needed for successful breeding results. Also birds do not select for a
healthy diet from a mixture of foods, picking out the foods they prefer.
Many seeds
found in parrot mixes contain low quality protein because they are
deficient in several amino acids, particularly lysine and methionine.
Adding animal based protein and essential amino acids improves the
quantity and quality of dietary protein.
